2013 was a year of high profile gang rape incidences for India. There were waves of protests intermingled with violent confrontation with police throughout India. On the 17. of March a Swiss couple was attacked, and the woman was gang raped by six men of the Kanjar Tribe. I was sent by the newspaper Blick to report and Photograph this story.

Wife of now convicted Nittin Kishor (16). They have three children Resma (4) Sonja (3) and Bobby (2) Kanjar Village Jharia (MP). While I was Photographing her she was crying and telling me that she would poison herself if her husband was convicted.
